"Last Saturday my son and I went out for an early lunch at the Dawg Father Grill. It is located near Camelback and Central next to the light rail. The d\u00E9cor is simple, G-dfather inspired memorabilia with some quaint hot dog advertisements and a simple red and white large tile theme. A rather simple Chicago diner feel to it. \n\nThe food is basic with a twist. They basically serve fries, hotdogs and burgers, however they serve combinations of beef with fries - dirty fries and cheese and onions, etc. mixed with the other entrees. The food taste great in the spirit of a greasy spoon. The servings are modest and the prices are reasonable. Two people can comfortably have lunch for about $15.00.\n\nMy favorite part of the meal is the Faygo (pop/soda); my favorite brand growing up in Michigan. I have not been able to find this brand (with the exception of Rocket Burger - see my posting) here in the Valley.\nOn the back wall are seven pictures of individuals who attempted to eat the house special (e.g. one pound of tater tots, 1-1/2 pounds of hot dog, 1/2 pound onion and green pepper) and have failed. These pictures are part of the \"Dawg House.\" The place lacks a \"maitre d,\" but makes up for it by having some great tasting food with a twist.\n\nIt is great for lunch!"^^ . "0"^^ . . "1"^^ .
